Complaint Investigation
Type A · 2 findings

Plain-language summary

During a complaint investigation in September 2024, inspectors found that the facility failed to report allegations of abuse to the state hotline as required by law for two residents sampled, which placed all 35 residents at risk and prevented the state from evaluating the facility's abuse protection systems. The facility acknowledged the reporting failure and cited staff training deficiencies, then implemented corrective actions including mandatory staff meetings on reporting requirements, distribution of hotline information, and mandatory mandated reporter training for all employees. A citation was issued for violation of WAC 388-78A-2630 and RCW 74.34.035 regarding the failure to immediately report abuse allegations.

Type AWAC §WAC 388-78A-2630(1)(a)
Verbatim citation text · WAC §WAC 388-78A-2630(1)(a)

The facility failed to report allegations of abuse to the Department's Aging and Disability Services Administration Complaint Resolution Unit hotline for 2 of 2 sampled residents. Staff did not make timely reports as required when there was reasonable cause to believe abuse had occurred, placing all 35 residents at risk of unreported abuse.

Type AWAC §RCW 74.34.035
Verbatim citation text · WAC §RCW 74.34.035

Mandated reporters failed to immediately report to the department when there was reasonable cause to believe abuse of vulnerable adults had occurred. Reports must be made within 24 hours to the DSHS hotline at 1-800-562-6078, but the facility did not comply with this requirement.
